Car Detailing for Hyundai Accent

Detailing your Hyundai Accent

The Accent was a lot of Torontonians' first new car, and most of the ones we clean have a decade of commuting inside them: coffee in the cup holders, salt in the carpet and a faint smell the owner stopped noticing years ago. Extraction plus an enzyme treatment handles all of that. The paint is thin, so we polish lightly and seal it, and the hubcaps come off so the steel wheels get cleaned properly. A small car, a quick job, a big difference.

What we watch for on a Accent

• Thin cloth and carpet absorb odours; enzyme cleaner and extraction work better than fragrance
• Hard plastics scratch easily and are cleaned with soft brushes and a mild cleaner
• Plastic hubcaps on steel wheels come off so the salt-crusted rims can be cleaned
• Thin paint takes a light polish and should not be compounded hard
• The hatchback's cargo carpet is thin and stains from groceries and gym bags

Compact cars: small cabins, big wear

Small cabins mean every surface is within reach of a stray coffee or a boot print, and the carpets take it all. Outside, compact cars live a hard life in parking lots and on the 401, so the lower panels collect salt and stone chips.
